Somers D Flute Delrin Keyless for sale in USA only. $265 shipped to Conus. I purchased this one here on Chiff and Fipple maybe a year or two back. It's a basic 3 piece flute without rings or keys - plays and sounds great. Some scuffs if you look close, but nothing that jumps out at you. These delrin...

... and with the price of copper going up, it may be very valuable someday!!!

I'm relatively new to flute and whistle. I started with a Low whistle a few years ago and switched to flute. From my perspective there are a few differences - apart from what has already been said above about the effort required to develop the embouchure. 1) In my experience, it takes a bit more bre...

The whistle has been SOLD. Thanks for looking.

Sorry... no suggestions for a case, but man that is a beautiful piece!

Jem, I am hoping for 4-6 keys. I have a 4 Key Hammy that I picked up from a Fellow chiffer which I enjoy playing. And I wo...

1/2 a year later and I'm still looking. Hoping for a Copley and Boegli Delrin with Keys here in the States. One of these days I'm going to bite the bullet and order up a new one from them, but I'm hoping to find one used for a discounted price.

Pic is visible for me now. Nice case. Nice flute too!!!

The pic link isn't working!

since the D# is next to impossible on the keyless flute So... uh... how exactly do you play a D# on a keyless flute? I don't see D# on the basic fingering charts. It's pretty easy to move from B to C natural by just lifting my left 1 finger a bit - or 0XX000. But D#??? It makes some horrific noise ...
